History
The Federation Council was created by the Government of New South Wales as a result of an amalgamation of some local government bodies through a reform program between 2013 and 2016.[8][9] As part of the review, all New South Wales local government authorities were assessed by the NSW Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal on their historical and projected demographic data, financial sustainability, and other measures including their impact on the State's resources. Those council deemed "unfit" were asked to nominate their preferred merger partner in order to achieve economies of scale.[9][10] Corowa and Urana shires both nominated to merge with each other. In addition Lockhart Shire nominated Urana Shire as a preferred merger partner.[10] In December 2015, the Minister for Local Government Paul Toole proposed the amalgamation of all three Councils.[11] All three Councils opposed the proposal and a group of residents in the town of Mulwala in Corowa Shire threatened to secede and join Berrigan Shire if the three-way merger went ahead.[12][13] Corowa Shire put forward the alternate proposal being a merger of Corowa and Urana shires, despite objections from Urana Shire.[14] The Minister accepted the Corowa and Urana merger proposal and the Federation Council was proclaimed on 12 May 2016.[1]
